But WHY the babydoll Chevy and WHY did he build it with a stiff front axle - to my knowledge it´s wishboned and torsioned at the front?
I´ll contact this fellow and tell him off.... In a polite manner, of course

This 1/12 was made by Masami's father. The chassis came from ABC hobby. I remember, i have seen this car in around 1986 or 1987 in the Japan National 1/12 Championship.

Tiger1, I can't find any article or related materials on the ABC Piste and its development nor much material on Masami's handmade ABC 1/12th. A very good example is the current 1/12th Team Associated rc12R5.1 vrs Yokomo's R12. Although they are two...

I'm considering machining the edges of my gold and black pan chassis to match the JCONCEPTS motor plate. Just like Kinwald and many of you have done. What tools or dremel bits do you guys use to do it with?

Sweet, lots of great ways to choose from think I'm going to try the sander and a little elbow grease as well. Thanks guys
In the midst of getting into this hobby and seeing what's out there, I picked up a near-mint Bandit. Had to replace the MSC servo, lube the steering servo, and get a NiMh battery, but after that it worked flawlessly. I let my kids bash it around at...
